Ferdinand Berthoud FB1: Platinum Model Debut!
KIH
Yet another "souvenir" I got during the factory visit - embargo Sep. 28th, 18:00 Swiss Time.
Rose Gold model
And now, finally, Platinum Model - again, LE of 50. Must hurry!
The TRIO from the back.
Checking the PT model from the sides. Four windows shows inside.....
The TRIO from the front.
Which color would you want? WG coloring is very authentic with blued hands, while PT dial is somewhat "new". I like PT dial, if compared - I wish I could open my wallet!

The back of this timepiece is truly incredible. OMG 😱 If I had the chance to own one, I would wear it with the back in plain view Best wishes Alkiro

Thanks ... ... though the $260k price and technical singularity means that few Chopard owners will be interested?

Please read this thread and then... ... you can be cynical ) www.watchprosite.com www.watchprosite.com Hope these be helpful to understand the Chopard brand and why Chopard (or rather Mr. KFS) decided to acquire FB brand.

I own both Chopard and Breguet watches. Currently, I am looking at the futuristic Breguet Ref 7727; magnetic pivots and 10 hz. Looks promising. Check out the physics. www.watch-insider.com

Yes, technically very interesting, but in terms of workmanshop not even close to the FB1

I'm not sure if there is a $200k difference in the workmanship? In any case, the Breguet owner could be a part of the future.

May be not so huge but the FB is well above the Breguet Best wishes Alkiro

Delving deeply into the Chopard L.U.C Full Strike Minute Repeater part 3 of 3 - Design
Ornatus-Mundi
The Chopard L.U.C Full Strike Minute Repeater is not only a superbly engineered timepiece, but also a consistently designed wrist companion. For this last part of my series on this timepiece, I sat down with Chopard's head of design, Guy Bove , for an in-depth session discussing the principle guidelines which drove the design of this watch (for the first part of this series, covering the Chopard manufacturing capabilities, click here ; for the second, delving into the technology behind this watch, here !) ... .
